: Kalu Ganga, a major tributary of Amban Ganga, is one of the perennial rivers of Sri Lanka. Also, Amban Ganga is a major tributary of Mahaweli Ganga. The Kalu Ganga starts from Knuckles mountains, and about 90% of the catchment is covered with forests. The Government of Sri Lanka constructed Kalu Ganga and Moragahakanda Reservoirs in 2014 to increase the water availability in Mahaweli Basin to improve the agricultural and drinking water benefits in several provinces. This study used the Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) to simulate the hydrology of the Kalu Ganga catchment and estimate the daily streamflow series of the Kalu Ganga. The long-term mean annual flow of the Kalu Ganga at the dam site would be 196 MCM (equivalent to 6.24 m 3 /s) with a standard deviation of 57.5 MCM and coefficient of variation of 0.29. The mean annual catchment rainfall is 2763 mm, streamflow is 59%, and evapotranspiration is 33% of the rainfall. The Kalu Ganga catchment hydrology is dominated by the wet season rainfall, which governs the Kalu Ganga flow, where 89% of the annual flow volume is produced. Further, 67% of the flow volume is produced from November to January. The model results show that 89% of the annual average of streamflow is generated as baseflow, a feature of a perennial river. The high baseflow fraction is hydrologically favourable for the water availability of the catchment as this shows the utilizable quantity of water is high.
卡伦恒河是安班恒河的一条主要支流,是斯里兰卡的多年生河流之一。此外,安班恒河是马哈威利恒河的主要支流。卡鲁恒河发源于Knuckles山脉,大约90%的流域被森林覆盖。斯里兰卡政府于2014年建造了Kalu Ganga和Moragahakanda水库,以增加Mahaweli盆地的水资源供应,改善几个省的农业和饮用水效益。利用土壤水分评估工具(SWAT)对卡鲁恒河流域进行了水文模拟,估算了卡鲁恒河流域的日流量序列。卡鲁恒河在坝址的长期年平均流量为196 MCM(相当于6.24 m3 /s),标准差为57.5 MCM,变异系数为0.29。流域年平均降雨量为2763 mm,径流量占总降雨量的59%,蒸散量占总降雨量的33%。卡鲁恒河流域的水文以雨季降雨为主,雨季降雨支配着卡鲁恒河的流量,卡鲁恒河年流量的89%产生于此。此外,67%的流量产生于11月至1月。模型结果表明,年平均流量的89%为基流,这是多年生河流的特征。高基流分数在水文上有利于集水区的水可用性,因为这表明可利用的水量很高。

: The dynamics of tank cascade systems have been studied using simple water balance models. This paper presents the development of a system simulation model for a tank cascade system based on the principles of System Dynamics (SD), a mathematical modeling approach that could be used to study the behavior of dynamic systems. The model was developed for the Mamunugama tank cascade system comprising 06 tanks and 02 anicuts and located in the Kurunegala District, Sri Lanka. Modeling of all the water balance components of the tank cascade system is presented in detail. The model was calibrated using observed water levels at four tanks during the period from October 2020 to September 2021 covering a Maha Season and a Yala Season by comparing them with the model computed tank water levels. The model results provided valuable insights into the water balance components at each tank. The model has the potential to be used as a tool for optimizing the usage of the limited water resources in tank cascade systems for improved agricultural production. It can be used in planning tank rehabilitation, studying the impact of restoring abandoned tanks in addition to planning cultivation seasons in a scientific manner.

: This study aims to ascertain the factors that influence young women engineers in Sri Lanka to choose engineering as their career choice and to study the nature of workplace support they receive in a highly gendered work environment. An online self-administered questionnaire containing five-point Likert type and open-ended questions were distributed via email among a conveniently selected sample of over 200 young women engineers with less than 10 years of working experience in Sri Lanka. Eighty-two responses were received. Likert-type responses were analyzed using descriptive statistics and graphical methods, while thematic analysis was employed for responses to the open-ended question. Cleverness in mathematics and the higher reputation prevailed in the society for the engineering profession have majorly contributed to the young women engineers’ career choices in engineering. They experience a fairly supportive working environment in their workplaces. Many of them were satisfied with their salary, promotions and other professional achievements. Qualitative responses further revealed the gender-based discrimination, lesser job opportunities, industry-wise differences, fallacies on women engineers and difficulties in balancing the work-life as the other concerns in their workplaces. Although these findings cannot be generalized to the Sri Lankan industrial sector due to the use of convenient sampling, this study reveals prevailing concerns of young women engineers for the attention of the engineering fraternity and employers.
:本研究旨在确定影响斯里兰卡年轻女工程师选择工程作为职业选择的因素,并研究她们在高度性别化的工作环境中获得的工作场所支持的性质。一份包含五点李克特式和开放式问题的在线自我管理问卷通过电子邮件分发给200多名在斯里兰卡工作经验不足10年的年轻女工程师。收到82份答复。李克特型回答采用描述性统计和图形方法进行分析,而开放式问题的回答采用专题分析。在数学方面的聪明才智和工程专业在社会上的较高声誉是年轻女工程师选择工程职业的主要原因。他们在工作场所体验到相当支持性的工作环境。他们中的许多人对自己的薪水、晋升和其他职业成就感到满意。定性回答进一步揭示了基于性别的歧视、较少的就业机会、行业差异、对女工程师的误解以及平衡工作与生活的困难是她们工作场所的其他问题。虽然这些发现不能推广到斯里兰卡的工业部门,由于使用方便的抽样,本研究揭示了普遍关注的年轻女性工程师的工程兄弟会和雇主的注意。

A code-based approach can only be used to determine the wind loading on conventional single-plate billboards for normal wind direction. Based on the literature, no simplified method is available to estimate the drag force coefficient for single-plate and two-plate billboards for various aspects, clearance ratios, and wind angles. With the many experimental kinds of research done on single-plate billboards, a database was created for the drag force coefficient, for various aspects, clearance ratios, and wind angles. For the case of two-plate billboards, a very limited number of experimental results have been reported. In order to generate adequate data, CFD simulations were done. However, only limited publications are available regarding the selection of mesh size and the most suitable turbulence model. Based on the trial and error approach, a 2-equation k- ω SST model was selected and a mesh sensitivity analysis was done to identify the proper mesh size. Linear-Static analyses were carried out using the pressure values obtained from the CFD analysis to compute the drag force and the torsional moment about the base, which governs the structural design of billboards. With the results obtained, two separate equations were developed to predict the drag force coefficients for the required aspect, clearance ratios, and wind angle for single-plate and two-plate billboards. For both types of billboards, the critical range of wind angle was identified as -45° to +45°. The maximum torsion about the base can be estimated by multiplying the maximum drag force with 16% of the billboard width for single-plate billboards and 22% for two-plate billboards.
基于代码的方法只能用于确定常规单板广告牌在正常风向下的风荷载。基于文献,目前还没有一种简化的方法来估算单板广告牌和双板广告牌在各个方面、间隙比和风角下的阻力系数。通过对单板广告牌进行多种实验研究,建立了阻力系数、间隙比、风角等各方面的数据库。对于双板广告牌,报道的实验结果非常有限。为了获得足够的数据,进行了CFD模拟。然而,关于网格尺寸的选择和最合适的湍流模型,只有有限的出版物。基于试错法,选择了2方程k- ω海表温度模型,并进行了网格敏感性分析,以确定合适的网格尺寸。利用CFD分析得到的压力值进行线性-静力分析,计算广告牌底座的阻力和扭转力矩,从而指导广告牌的结构设计。根据得到的结果,建立了两个独立的方程来预测单板和双板广告牌所需的纵横比、间隙比和风角的阻力系数。对于这两种类型的广告牌,确定了风角的临界范围为-45°至+45°。通过将最大阻力乘以广告牌宽度的16%(单板广告牌)和22%(双板广告牌),可以估算出关于底座的最大扭转。

: Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a special type of concrete that flows under its own weight while enhancing the compressive strength and durability compared to conventional concrete. This is an effort to present the possibility of using Blended Hydraulic Cement (BHC) instead of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) in SCC production. In order to achieve the required workability and basic mechanical properties, 10 control mixes of SCC with OPC were prepared using the coarse aggregate size of 5 mm – 14 mm. Each mix was cast using 100% OPC and 100% BHC separately. Fresh properties of the SCC were tested by using slump flow, V-funnel, L-box and J-ring test according to the EFNARC guideline. 9-cubes and 6-cylindrical specimens were cast per mix to determine the compressive strength at the 7 th , 28 th and 56 th days. Test results illustrate that the workability properties of fresh concrete mix are moderately good using both cement types. Most mixes show higher 28 th and 56 th -day compressive strengths for SCC mix made of BHC than OPC compared with 7 th -day compressive strength variation. Fly ash in BHC contributes later strength gaining of SCC in this study. Thus, the experimental investigation indicates the suitable mix designs used in the current construction industry.
自密实混凝土(SCC)是一种特殊类型的混凝土,与传统混凝土相比,它在自身重量下流动,同时提高了抗压强度和耐久性。该研究旨在展示在SCC生产中使用混合水力水泥(BHC)代替普通波特兰水泥(OPC)的可能性。为了达到所要求的和易性和基本力学性能,采用粗骨料粒径为5 ~ 14 mm,制备了10种SCC - OPC控制混合料。每种混合物分别用100% OPC和100% BHC浇铸。根据EFNARC准则,采用坍落度流动、v型漏斗、l型箱和j型环试验对SCC的新鲜性能进行了测试。每次混合浇注9个立方体和6个圆柱形试样,测定第7、28和56天的抗压强度。试验结果表明,在两种水泥类型下,新拌混凝土的和易性均较好。与第7天的抗压强度变化相比,大多数含BHC的SCC混合料在第28天和第56天的抗压强度高于OPC。在本研究中,粉煤灰对细砂混凝土的后期强度增加有促进作用。因此,试验研究为当前建筑行业使用的合适的配合比设计提供了参考。

: The construction industry is rapidly moving toward sustainable development due to the rise of the scarcity of natural resources and the climatic impact on the environment. Several studies have been carried out related to the subject of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) based lightweight concrete panel production and its usages in buildings. This paper mainly focuses on strength development and lateral load-bearing capacity of the EPS panels where these panels are used as a loadbearing wall in buildings. Lateral loading resistance properties and performance of lightweight wall panels were assessed by carrying out load tests on scale down wall specimens representing the actual wall construction. The strength development of EPS-based concrete panels was assessed by developing strength curves from compressive strength tests carried out for different curing conditions of the lightweight concrete. The outcomes of this study show that the flexural strength parallel to the wall panels is in the range of 0.58 to 0.70N/mm 2 . Under wet conditions, it reduces to 0.45 N/mm 2 . Also, there was an average of 0.4 N/mm 2 compressive strength difference between properly cured and non-cured EPS samples, which is approximately 20% of strength development in the six month period.
由于自然资源的稀缺和气候对环境的影响,建筑行业正在迅速走向可持续发展。关于以聚苯乙烯(EPS)为基础的轻质混凝土板的生产及其在建筑中的应用进行了一些研究。本文主要研究EPS板作为建筑承重墙的强度发展和侧向承载能力。通过对代表实际墙体结构的按比例缩小的墙体试件进行荷载试验,评估了轻质墙板的抗侧载性能和性能。通过对轻量化混凝土不同养护条件下的抗压强度试验绘制强度曲线,对eps基混凝土板的强度发展进行了评价。研究结果表明,平行于墙板的抗弯强度在0.58 ~ 0.70N/mm 2之间。在潮湿条件下,它降低到0.45 N/ mm2。此外,适当固化和未固化EPS样品之间的平均抗压强度差异为0.4 N/mm 2,约为六个月期间强度发展的20%。
